Reynaldo Lopez pitched five perfect innings on Friday, striking out seven batters.
Fantasy Impact
After leaving the rotation with Carlos Rodon's return off the IL, Lopez was shifted back to the bullpen. But after a one-inning start from teammate Dallas Keuchel, Lopez got his number called upon and he delivered with an absolute masterclass that earned him his third win of the season. It wouldn't shock me to see Lopez take Keuchel's starting spot to close out the season.
